Happy Thursday! It is 7 days until the winter equinox, in the year 2006 . This is the first day that any Amigos Student has discovered Wiki. We have our own account. We have our own pages. We are psyched!

We went to Deer Island and explored three ecosystems.

Welcome to the Meadow Ecosystem

We:

-Drew what we saw

-Collected Samples from each site

-Had fun

Location


The meadow was located atop a hill (a drumlin, actually) on Deer Island (which is no longer an island, but a peninsula)
